The ‘Hi, FireDogLake’ Memorial Open Thread.


You know, I had this really interesting post in the back of my head for the inevitable screamfest that would have been directed at us by name over this Tiller guy’s murder*… except that when I actually saw the details of the one that eventually bubbled up, it all got pushed aside by one thought: 

Jeebus, people.  You’ve been doing this sort of thing forever.  Surely at this stage of the game you don’t need to plagiarize your battle plan from Bill Freaking O’Reilly.

I blame Firefox.  If only because they never get blamed for anything, which is actually kind of odd, when you think about it.

Open thread.

Moe Lane

*Of course there was going to be one.  These people can’t quit us.

'essential services'..?

“Hope those providing essential services have upped their own security …”

OK…killing Tiller is murder…agreed..

but killing babies is ‘essential services’

hey…cherry picking the comments is fun!

 

Certainly

I condemn this murder all the way around. My condemnation does not extend to accepting Tiller’s actions as abortionist, but I don’t condone murdering a person for doing what is considered legal. After all, the law says he performed a legal medical procedure. His fate is in God’s hands, now.

Yes, entirely predictable

Take one post and use it in a lame attempt to cast all pro-Lifers as terrorists. I’ll reserve my condemnation for the idiot who committed this heinous act. I fear he has done irreparable harm to the pro-Life movement.

“The alternative to the awful extremity of abortion is the indispensable joy of introducing this flawed world to someone who might make it better.”–John Hayward (AKA Dr. Zero)

He's done no harm to the movement

Most Americans aren’t even looking to evaluate political points when something like this happens.

So much for Obama eliminating "terrorist" from the lexicon

Doesn’t it seem like that word has been used endlessly today in the left-wing blogs?

I'm actually enjoying that

I said during the primaries he was a wuss, didnt’ I?

I said it during the general.

Now they’re finding out.

Yeah, it IS pretty amusing that the left spent 8 years saying there are no terrorists yet now they see one around every corner on the right!

you forget rule #143786.1367:

right = terrorist, left = freedom fighter

It says so right here in my copy of The Socialist’s Guide to Blog postings.

[Yak Yak Yak. This guy would deface the abortionist's corpse in front of his children if he had to, in order to make his fascist political point. – NS]

None of you guys accept the facts that this murderer was a convicted bomber, tax dodger, member of Operation Rescue who had their phone number on a Post It note on his dashboard when arrested.

None of you accept that the black and white absolutist rhetoric your side has been spewing about and toward this doctor led to his assassination.

You people talk a good game, mouthing platitudes about personal responsibility being a conservative value. Ha! Today we see what conservatives stand for. Violence. Domestic Terrorism. Lawlessness.

I am so glad your side lost the last two elections big-time, it shows that America is rejecting your hateful hypocrisy.

oh...and here's a stupid comment I didn't have to bring over...

speciallist (Diary) Sunday, May 31st at 10:58PM EST (link)

you saved me some time….thanks

I'm sure it was memorable.

Moe Lane (Diary) Sunday, May 31st at 11:02PM EST (link)

I wonder who he ripped it off from.

 
 
 

And I thought the comments on youtube were stupid...

speciallist (Diary) Sunday, May 31st at 10:56PM EST (link)

we might be giving these kooks far more attention than they deserve…

All the comments are similar to these..

“…An embryo in a womb is a parasite.

…and there are way too many humans on this planet. Better to use birth control first. Abortion is a bad option but one that should be available to the woman.

…most people are too ignorant or blindly religious to use birth control.

…CSPAN is Republican controlled now.”

Uggggh…

"CSPAN is Republican controlled now"?! Seriously?!!!

IJB Sunday, May 31st at 11:12PM EST (link)

That’s even better than the numbskulls who repeatedly bleat about how the “corporate controlled media” (e.g. CBS News, MSNBC) are “right-wing” and spend “all their time attacking and undermining” Obama!!

(And, no, I’m not making those quotes up, though I am paraphrasing…)

 
 

at least we know those homeland security people were right....

chuckie (Diary) Monday, June 1st at 1:07AM EST (link)

…when they said it’s us rightwing extremists they have to watch….i mean, what’s the chances it was some pro-choice guy did this….????

i’m always happy to see “my” government doing the “good” work….

….aren’t you???

Somebody's been hittin the bottle...

sleep it off

 
 

That thread at Firedoglake is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read.

cmack Monday, June 1st at 1:42AM EST (link)

At no point in their rambling, incoherent responses were they even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this site is now dumber for having read it. I award them no points, and may God have mercy on their souls.

They suck the life out of logic

Playboy pulls 'hate f***' article

Finrod (Diary) Monday, June 1st at 9:17PM EST (link)

Since this is the most recent open thread, I’ll put this here:

Playboy has pulled the ‘hate f***’ article that Moe mentioned in Red Hot. It simply 404s now.

Let’s get down to brass tacks here. How much for the ape?
